And it was a risk, I couldn´t know if how we were going to handeln, but it was amazing how fast they understand the idea. I agree that it is better to use tools that the students are already use, but if you students are using no tool of the web 2.0? All of the students know what a blog is, but only one or two have their own blog. I understand what says Stephen in SL and that works when you have to choice between diferents tools for a online course, and I guess that he wanted say that "for our course about connectivism he doesn´t use SL but Blogs and Moodle, because these are tools that the most of participants know. In the case of my students is different. They don´t know Moodle, they don´t know what a wiki is, but they know in general what a Blog is and it is easy that they going of a consumer position to a producers one or "prosumer"...<BR/><BR/>Un abrazo para tí tambiénCarloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07566548913031608474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-127453488277272031.post-42622177929738924022008-10-23T16:23:00.000-07:002008-10-23T16:23:00.000-07:00Hi Carlos!Sorry that I got here late. You answere...Hi Carlos!<BR/>Sorry that I got here late. You answered my questions thoroughly, I am glad you can use this for your second paper.<BR/><BR/>You are describing here a practical way to move from a group to a network, I bet your students are very happy with you as teacher and as you are keen on giving feedback they will appreciate it.<BR/><BR/>I agree, there is no point checking the speed of the connections, to check how they use them to learn is more important. <BR/><BR/>Did you students blog before your course? In the second live session this week Stephen mentioned that it was better to use the tools our students already use in their daily activities as a base and then move onward.<BR/><BR/>I am happy because you dedicated your post to me and also because I could show you snap shots, I find them very useful. <BR/><BR/>Te mando un gran abrazo.
